Vladamir Putin lectured Obama this weekend on Islamist extremism during their phone conversation on the Boston Marathon bombings. Russia warned the US back in 2011 that bomber Tamerlan Tsarnaev was a follower of radical Islam. CSM via Yahoo reported:
The revelation that the main suspects in the Boston Marathon bombings were two Russian citizens of half-Chechen, half-Avar (Dagestani) ethnicity, has prompted Kremlin leaders to dust off a longstanding argument that the US should listen to Moscow’s warnings about extreme Islamist terrorists, whether they hail from Chechnya, or Syria, or anywhere else.
The Russians say the US should turn away from its current path of criticizing Russia on human rights issues and embrace greater anti-terrorist cooperation in the name of common civilizational values.

Again, why do we spend billions on Homeland Security?
Obama is an embarrassment to America.
Seven,
Dobriy noch.
I have been to Russia 4 times. People there told me what the Chechen war was all about.
Had a Russian exchange student living with us during the Beslan massacre. We watched it unfold on Russian tv through the internet, with him translating for us.
Nothing the Islamic savages do surprises me.
Being the Cold War leftover, I consider Putin to be the leader of the “opposition”. An unreconstructed Chekist. Even so, I have far more respect for Putin than I do for Barry Dunham.
Beslan must have been a major wake up for Putin. One Beslan is one too many.
gag - that one says it all. Blech. What an idiot.
yes, he is...
If the Czar was still in power then, Putin would have served him.
Putin and Obama are a lot alike. They both will do their best to promote communism...
Putin is no Communist, he is a Russian Nationalist.
Putin may be a strongman, but there’s little doubt about his patriotism and desire to see a stronger Russia. 0bama....
Does Putin know that the FBI may have used their info on the brothers to set the brothers up to do a false flag? Putin must suspect that the FBI and CIA are becoming provocateurs of pro-islamic hegemony.The FBI and CIA (and the military)are split and compromised and are slipping into the anti-christian worldview. Who’s to say some elements decided to use the brothers to set up a big show for anti 2nd amendment propaganda.
Putie must be pizzed off because this could have been prevented. With all the worldwide focus on Boston terror it could re spark another outbreak back there in Chechnya and Putie would have to deal harshly with it again. Durak Barry.
“A Chinese National was killed in the Marathon Bombing...I suspect the Chinese may be doing their own investigation as to what really happened.”
Yeah, like the ChiComs give a flying one hander about one of their citizens.
One thing is sure. If there was a ft hood incident in Russia, the terrorist would be dead and dumped already.
Actually, my dear friend, I speak with Russians regularly (I speak the language) on Facebook. They assure me that Russia is still far less free than America, though they are staying stagnant and we are losing freedom quickly. One of my female Russian acquaintances was in New York City recently, and she assures me that even there, America is -- presently -- more free. However, she warns me that we are rapidly sliding and that the velocity is picking up, and that we are likely to be less free than Russia shortly.
No if you're obama. No sacrifice (of other people) is too great for islam.
You're right. That's the difference. It's also why we tend to like Putin...
It’s really bad when one has more respect for the former head of the KGB than the POTUS. Putin is a bad ass and 0bama is a pussy.
I don’t think Putin had to “school” him on anything, really. I think Obama knows exactly what’s up with Jihadis - he’s supporting THEM with OUR tax dollars (Egypt, Libya, Syria, etc...).
If Russia finds our weapons in the Caucuses or Baltics with these terrorists there we’re going to be in a bit of trouble, imo. Russia won’t sit back quietly while the US arms the rebels there... They might be semi-quiet in regard to Syria, but if those things make their way to Chechnya (for example), I think Putin will take a much different tone publicly against the US.
